On 23 October 1950, the Karachi University
Act was authorized by the Government of Pakistan and in 1951 started
its teaching and research activities in the two main faculties of Arts
and Science.
The wave of globalization has connected
the world into an ever integrated community. This massive integration
and interaction has been a result of close coordination and frequent
socio-cultural, economic and political contacts among the nations
of the world. Globalization, thus, has created a new civilization; a
civilization of diversity and multiplicity.
Our faculty provides the opportunity
to students of the Arts and Social Sciences to develop their knowledge
and social skills with the aim of relating their study and research to
the needs of the contemporary era.
Through their education, students of
the Arts and Social Sciences are empowered to deal with social, spiritual,
psychological and historical challenges in the society. Multi-dimensional
curricula and seminars are conducted to transfer moral, ethical, cultural,
religious and social values to enable students to resolve the significant
issues at societal and national levels.
